Don't forget about your 2" GF front springs

stock shackles unless you have adjustable shackles like stealth has.

but then you will probably be in the territory to need a carrier bearing relocator kit if you have the two piece driveshaft

btw... how are you liking the tinting on the front? affect your nighttime driving? and what % did you go?
I forget what % I got, I think it was the lightest possible or that the guy suggested?? Night driving isn't too bad, it's my side and rear I have problems with...can't see anything at night when backing up or if there is no other light source. I get a lot of hassle from police for my windshield but have been given breaks because I'm in the testing process.

PN from Eibach is 35112.020. I got mine from AJUSA but they were about $30 cheaper a year ago. They go for $250 now, free shipping. Search around, you'll find some online.

Pat is right, if you have a 2 piece drive shaft you need a center bearing relocation bracket. If you have a 1 piece drive shaft, you're good.

Love the stance!! the grille is ok but I think it would look better w/ the surroundings black. Its your truckl and you put the sweat and money into it, so who cares what we think. Im admire the fact you do everything yourself

Would you ever black out your exhaust pipes?

The tips or the pipes??
I wouldn't black out the tips, maybe if I was going for an all blacked out look but I like chrome accents.
The pipes will be covered once I but the 3D Carbon kit on
